“We have a lot of debates in Washington that get dumbed down and are
used for political purposes,” Paul told NBC’s David Gregory. “This whole
sort of war on women thing, I’m scratching my head because, if there
was a war on women, I think they won.”
As evidence, the Kentucky senator pointed out that none of the women
in his family were complaining about inequality or having their health
care rights curtailed by Republicans.
“You
know, I don’t see so much that women are downtrodden, I see women
rising up and doing great things,” he remarked. “In fact, I worry about
our young men sometimes because I think the women really are
out-competing the men in our world.”
Paul added that he tried to never talk about the female anatomy and that Republicans did not start the war on women “debate.”
“The facts show that women are doing very well, have come a long
way,” he explained. “And I have a lot of successful women in my family.
And I don’t here them saying, ‘Oh, woe is me, this terrible misogynist
world.’ They look out and they’re conquering the world.”

Paul later suggested that for President Bill Clinton was responsible
for the “war on women” because he had an affair with an intern while he
was in office during the 1990s.
“The media seems to have given President Clinton a pass on this,”
Paul insisted. “There is no excuse for that, that is predatory behavior
and it shouldn’t be something — we should’t want to associate with
people who would take advantage of a young girl in his office.”
The potential Republican 2016 presidential candidate said that it was
difficult to unlink Bill Clinton’s behavior from potential Democratic
presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
“I
think in my state, people tend to frown upon that,” he declared. “If
there were someone in my community who did that in my community, they
would be socially — we would disassociate from somebody who would take
advantage of a young woman in a workplace.”

The problem with Mr. Paul is that when he was running for office, he never let anything like a woman get in his way.,n the way of his ambitions in the way.
